Here's just a smaple of out little tire and wheel warehouse...
- 2 new Kumho V710's 225/45/17. 4 new Toyo 888's 235/40/17 (I have several sets that Eric Meyer has for me) and 4. B. F. Goodrich R-1's 235/40/17 (I won an on line contest).

We have not included Lauri's Mazdaspeed Wheels and Kumho SPT's, her new ASA A-1's Black with polished lip or my old ASA's with the Yokohama Parada Spec-2's or my Motgegi's F-7's with the Parada Spec II's.
Chippy bought Lauri's ols Kumho's SPT's and evan purchased 6 of my Nitto NT-01's to mount on his RP-F 1's. I have this feeling we'll have more when we need them.....so stay tuned, I am sure we'll be having more sales on used tires very, very soon!

Anyone with MSP/Boost experience please feel free to guide/correct/comment etc.
Very shortly I will be upgrading to an FMIC and will be upgrading my BOV/BPV as well. I want to go with the TurboSmart Kompact Dual Port. After ready many posts, I have come to understand that to install this will will just replace the stock BPV and will not be attached via an welded in flange on the cold pipe (such as an HKS) Is this correct?
Here is the link for the unit I want http://www.turbosmartonline.com/index.php?id=44. It comes in different sizes (20mm, 25mm, and 34mm), what's the difference?
Thanks for the help guys
I run a Turbosmart Dual Port BOV, 50/50 set up and it welded to the cold pipe. Went to a FMIC and had it moved to the new piping the is 2.50"......Let me know when youare ready to order it, PM me and I'll save you some money on the BOV.

as Phen said, Danville is first option, as there are quite a few hotel options and tons of food there ... 2nd option is South Boston, VA. both close to the track with a variety of hotels. if you find a cheap one, post up and we'll follow your lead.
how was the hotel in S. Boston, Evan #2? you stayed there when you went down for NASA, right? but was there food around? we've pretty much always stayed at the Days Inn in Yanceyville, NC - it's closest to the track, but there is pretty much NOTHING there food wise.

Check out this website...I like the first hotel, although it might be pricey...it gives a VIR discount, though!

Sounds about right.
I'll be running an Injen CAI/SRI depending the route of my piping
[/QUOTE]Oh, and I hope you plan to recirc. VTA on the stock ECU will be a pain in the ass without a piggy back of some sort. Unless you like crazy backfiring of course...[/QUOTE]
I'll probably sun a 50/50 set up. It seems that with MAF relocation most people can run 100% VTA without issues, so I think I'll be ok with MAF relocation and recirculation.
Marlon, could you PM/Post a picture of your new set-up? I'll be sure to get in touch when I'm going to order it. Thanks for the input guys!
The hotel in S.Boston was pretty good. It was about a 20-30 minute drive to VIR (depending on your pace). The beds weren't very comfortable, but they had free WiFi! LOL They also had a fridge and microwave.
As far as food goes, there's a bunch of fast food places down the road to the east like 5 minutes. Also, a Sheetz. We ended up buying some hot pockets and mac n cheese to cook in the microwave.
For 2 nights, it was $106 if you book 14 days in advance, 20% discount. (But keep in mind, you can't cancel or make any changes to you reservation if you do the discount). I think it's like 125 without the discount.
Yeah, the relocation does help a bit. You'll still get the occasional backfire from it.
or you could do what was done with my MSM and remove the MAF completely...

the office closed early due to power issues, guess who's watching top gear
Sometimes, but not normally. At least not on the car that I have most of my MSP experience.
